- W2491796215 abstract "Purpose: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a systemic vasculitis that tends to have a predilection for involving the medium and large size vessels throughout the body, especially branches of the carotid arteries. Caucasian women over the age of 50 are those most likely to be affected by GCA, with incidence of developing GCA increasing with each decade of life. Also, those of north-western European descent tend to have a higher rate of developing this condition, and based on current research there appears to be a genetic component for increased rate of developing GCA. GCA can affect the short posterior ciliary arteries, which can cause edema secondary to the occlusion of the artery, and effectively shut off input from the optic nerve, causing the patient to lose vision and develop profound vision lossCase Report: This case report is a review of the typical management of a patient with GCA and discusses clinical findings and treatment.Conclusion: The natural course of GCA without treatment is usually permanent vision loss that tends to be profound, resulting in the patient becoming profoundly visually impaired in one eye. The goal of treating GCA is to prevent vision loss in the other eye, since GCA is a systemic inflammation. It is important for clinicians to be able to appreciate and realize the clinical signs and symptoms of this condition, understand the prognosis of the disease, and to be able to appropriately apply treatment and intervention." @default.
